Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Suggestions: A simple human-readable format for suggesting changes to text files
Even simpler:
Step 1: give me your edited `.tex` file.
Step 2: I selectively merge it into mine.
Step 3: There is no step 3.
To selectively merge, I use `meld` https://meldmerge.org/ but there are others.
Benefits of this even simpler approach:
- We continue to use the tools we are used to.
- We and our software don't have to learn a new inline diff format.
- Both files retain valid syntax before and during the selective merge.
- I can choose chunks to accept with a simple mouse click instead of editing a diff chunk.

Ask HN: How do you merge two files with ChatGPT(etc.)?
Why do you need ChatGPT? There are hundreds of diffing tools available that do this quite well. Meld is my favorite: https://meldmerge.org/

Diaphora, the most advanced Free and Open Source program diffing tool
Thanks, just today I daecided that the current status of Meld (https://meldmerge.org/) was untenable for me.
It used to be a fast program, with a reasonable interface.
For a long time now its interface has been "simplifed" following GNOME 3's User Interface Guidelines, and everything ended up being hidden inside a hamburger menu.
But what definitely made it untenable was not the UI, but its tendency to crash and being really slow under the slightest load.
I was considering contributing to the project, but honestly a better engineered alternative would be welcome.
Thanks for the info (and thanks Kai Willadsen for Meld).

Best visual diff and merge tool on macOS?
I’m looking for recommendations for the best visual diff and merge tool available on macOS. I’ve done my research as below but have some reservations about the options I found. - Meld seems to get mentioned a lot but the website syas it is not officially supported on OS X. Are the third party binaries trustworthy? - Beyond Compare is also mentioned but the developer website doesn’t inspire much confidence.

Integrating Git and (Neo)Vim: LazyGit + Fugitive + MergeTool for maxiumum efficiency [Showcase]
So, I use Meld for viewing complex diffs (:silent !meld . &). For interactivity, of course, I use the terminal and Vim, such as lazygit and tig, and fugative and gitgutter (or equivalents).

What a surprise
You bet. (Just copied the text of both into Meld and looked for genuine differences, in case you'd like to have an easy way for the future.) Thanks for doing all that you do here!

Code Search Is Hard
Basic code searching skills seems like something new developers are never explicitly taught, but which is an absolutely crucial skill to build early on.
I guess the knowledge progression I would recommend would look something kind this:
- Learning about Ctrl+F, which works basically everywhere.
- Transitioning to ripgrep https://github.com/BurntSushi/ripgrep - I wouldn't even call this optional, it's truly an incredible and very discoverable tool. Requires keeping a terminal open, but that's a good thing for a newbie!
- Optional, but highly recommended: Learning one of the powerhouse command line editors. Teenage me recommended Emacs; current me recommends vanilla vim, purely because some flavor of it is installed almost everywhere. This is so that you can grep around and edit in the same window.
- In the same vein, moving back from ripgrep and learning about good old fashioned grep, with a few flags rg uses by default: `grep -r` for recursive search, `grep -ri` for case insensitive recursive search, and `grep -ril` for case insensitive recursive "just show me which files this string is found in" search. Some others too, season to taste.
- Finally hitting the wall with what ripgrep can do for you and switching to an actual indexed, dedicated code search tool.

Modern Java/JVM Build Practices
The world has moved on though to opinionated tools, and Rust isn't even the furthest in that direction (That would be Go). The equivalent of those two lines in Cargo.toml would be this example of a basic configuration from the jacoco-maven-plugin: https://www.jacoco.org/jacoco/trunk/doc/examples/build/pom.x... - That's 40 lines in the section to do the "defaults".
Yes, you could add a load of config for files to include/exclude from coverage and so on, but the idea that that's a norm is way more common in Java projects than other languages. Like here's some example Cargo.toml files from complicated Rust projects:
Servo: https://github.com/servo/servo/blob/main/Cargo.toml
rust-gdext: https://github.com/godot-rust/gdext/blob/master/godot-core/C...
ripgrep: https://github.com/BurntSushi/ripgrep/blob/master/Cargo.toml
socketio: https://github.com/1c3t3a/rust-socketio/blob/main/socketio/C...

Ugrep – a more powerful, ultra fast, user-friendly, compatible grep
I'm not clear on why you're seeing the results you are. It could be because your haystack is so small that you're mostly just measuring noise. ripgrep 14 did introduce some optimizations in workloads like this by reducing match overhead, but I don't think it's anything huge in this case. (And I just tried ripgrep 13 on the same commands above and the timings are similar if a tiny bit slower.)
